side note by miloh: if members collectively fund %80 percent of the 'rule of thumb' $165/day costs, the leaves about a $33/day funding gap that needs to be covered with donations in order to maintain a neutral cash flow from month-to-month. This count from the cash donation bin holds only ~50% of this amount (21 days * $33/day = $693), which means Noisebridge will be cash flow negative month-to-month if we only rely on the cash donation bin)
